i for one bought my car at SDS, i have mixed reviews but whatever, i have my car and i'm happy
now what if you were selling your car here on beyond or some other place
some 18yo guy comes up and says he wants it, just depends on whether he gets approved for financing or not. he leaves you with a $500.00 deposit, you say ok sure to do him a favour.
well the guy gets his financing approved but it's taken him at least 2 weeks to decide whether he wants the car or not now.
in that 2 week span, you have babied up the car for him, detailed it to the 'T' (detail jobs usually run 400) made sure everything was perfect cause you want a happy customer
Now in the mean time, you have had other perspective buyers come and offer you cash in hand to buy the car, but you being the nice guy you are, turn them down and say it has already been spoken for...
After 2 weeks of people offering to buy your car with the cash, the 18yo comes back to you and says, "on second thought, i'm not taking the car, thanks for everything though"...
I'm sure you guys would be pissed, you lost potential sales that would have put the actual money into your pocket and the car gone and everyone happy.
Now you are out the money for the detail, the $500 that you have to pay back because this guy changed his mind and all the prospective buyers who you turned down, no longer want the car
Would you be happy? fuck no, and you're for damn sure going to keep that $500.00, the judge in small claims court would side with the seller 100% in this situation
this whole post is bullshit.
